These are all over my garden - especially on the newly-budding carnations (pix attached). Also on the fuchsias, purple sage, nastursiums and flowering maple. This seems to be a bad infestation. Are they aphids and what will I have to do to clean up the garden and get rid of them? I'm worried about the hummingbirds getting poisoned if I use an insecticide. Thanks to all. Rusty :(
